Docker Installation Error on Windows behind Firewall

Question

I\'m trying to install Docker on a Windows computer but I get this message:

Running pre-create checks...
(default) No default Boot2Docker

Answer 1

Editing the start.sh file may come up with other error things.

Instead that, just put your boot2docker.iso in below location as.

c:\user\USERNAME\\.docker\machine\cache

and restart your Docker terminal.

Answer 2

You may behind a firewall. If so, you will need to configure an http proxy.

According to https://github.com/boot2docker/boot2docker-cli/issues/230 you can do this one of a couple of ways:

(1) Edit start.sh and add the following before boot2docker.exe is called

export HTTP_PROXY=<proxy>
export HTTPS_PROXY=<proxy>

(2) Add HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY (and their values) to your System Variables or User Variables in your Windows config.

The proxy value should be of the form http://hostname:port
